2017 Map of Bald Hills

About this map

The Bald Hills rise as a distinctive landform in this sparsely populated stretch of the Great Plains, where the borders of three South Dakota counties converge. Surveyed in 2017, the area is defined by its section-line road network and the intersection of Potter, Faulk, and Hyde counties. The landscape is dotted with numerous small wetlands and prairie potholes typical of the region's glaciated geography. Transportation is anchored by local routes such as Co Rd 3 and Co Rd 12, along with the Holabird Grade which cuts across the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. This map serves as a detailed record of the rural infrastructure and natural drainage patterns in a remote agricultural environment, highlighting the precise township and range divisions including t117n r73w and t118n r72w.
